This section gives an overview of the various frames transmitted and received in the LIN communications protocol.

1.2.1

Unconditional Frame

An unconditional frame is always transmitted and received regardless of any updated signal values. The node that transmits a response to a header can be a master or slave node. Also, the node that receives the response can be a master or slave node. Sequences for unconditional frames are illustrated in figure 2.

1.2.2 Event-Triggered Frame
An event-triggered frame is transmitted from a master node and received by a slave node in order to confirm the availability of an update to the value of a signal. Only those slave nodes with updated signal values transmit responses to the header. The transmission of responses by several slave nodes may lead to a collision. When a collision occurs, the master node sends requests for the confirmation of signal values to all of the slave nodes via an unconditional frame. On the other hand, the master node is the only node that receives the responses. Sequences for event-triggered frames are illustrated in figure 3.

1.2.5 Slave Response Frame
Slave response frames provide a way for the master node confirmations of validity or invalidity in response to nodediagnostic frames and responses to node-setting frames sent from the master node to the slave node. Only slave nodes send out responses to the header. This flow should not be implemented in clustered structures where several slave nodes might react. Slave nodes will not transmit a response when they have nothing with which to respond. The sequence for a slave response frame is illustrated in figure 6.

R8C/Tiny Series R8C/11 Group LIN (Local Interconnect Network): Slave Volume 2.2 ROM/RAM Capacity

(The compiler in use is version 5.40 release 00 of the C/C++ compiler for the M16C Series.) Amounts of ROM/RAM given in this application note are amounts used by the LIN2.0 library (lin20_r8c.lib) alone, and otherwise will vary with definitions of slave nodes. Also note that these are checked at compile time. ROM: 7138 bytes RAM: 204 bytes* *: This does not include the heap requirements. Refer to Heap Area in section 2.2.1 below.

2.2.1

Heap Area

The buffers for the LIN2.0 library are dynamically allocated from the heap during initialization. Therefore, the development of applications that employ the library requires that a sufficiently large unused part of the heap be available. The following items indicate the minimum requirements for the heap area. Also, the items indicate how much memory from the heap will be required. 1. Minimum requirements for the heap (RAM) area FIFO buffers for transmitting a frame of raw diagnostic data: 9 bytes (when one stage is saved.) FIFO buffers for receiving a frame of raw diagnostic data: 9 bytes (when one stage is saved.) The above items require no less than 18 bytes of the heap. 2. Items that consume the heap area FIFO buffers for transmitting frames of raw diagnostic data FIFO buffers for receiving frames of raw diagnostic data The user can specify the number of stages of the FIFOs listed above by using the configurator. For both transmission and reception, any number of stages from 1 to 65535 is specifiable. The requirement for memory from the heap is calculated by using the following formula. Formula for calculation: No. of stages in the FIFO for transmission (or reception) 9 bytes Example: when saving 30 stages of FIFO buffer for transmission and 20 stages of FIFO buffer for reception, (30 (stages) 9 (bytes) + 20 (stages) 9 (bytes) = 450 (bytes). Note: When the required heap area is not available, an error occurs in the initialization of LIN system.

2.3.3 API for Frames of Diagnostic Data

Reservation of the Transmission of a Frame of Raw Diagnostic Data void ld_put_raw( l_ifc_handle ifc_name, const l_u8* const data ) Description Reserves the transmission of a frame of raw diagnostic data from the transmission FIFO buffer Return value None Argument ifc_name Name of the interface data Buffer for the data to be transmitted Example l_u8 data[8] = { 0x20u, 0x06u, 0xb1u, 0xffu, 0x7fu, 0x00u, 0x00u, 0x20u }; ld_put_raw(0, data); Note The name of the interface can only be set to 0. In other words, it should not be set to any value other than 0. The transmission does not proceed as soon as the API function is called. Instead, transmission is in response to the next master request frame. At that time, however, a sleep command or node-setting command for which execution has also been reserved will take priority over this command. When the required space is not available in the FIFO buffer, execution of the command is not reserved in response to the function call. Since there is no return value, error checking is not automatically executed. However, checking should be executed on the side that calls this function. Acquisition of a Frame of Raw Diagnostic Data void ld_get_raw( l_ifc_handle ifc_name, l_u8* const data ) Description Acquires a frame of raw diagnostic data from the FIFO buffer Return value None Argument ifc_name Name of the interface data Buffer for saving the acquired data Example l_u8 data[8]; ld_get_raw (0, data); Note The name of the interface can only be set to 0. In other words, it should not be set to any value other than 0. When this API function is called, the oldest frame of data is acquired from the FIFO buffer. Once the FIFO buffer is empty, no data is acquired even if this function is called. Since there is no return value, error checking is not automatically executed. However, checking should be executed on the side that calls this function. Verification of the Transmission of a Frame of Raw Diagnostic Data l_u8 ld_raw_tx_status( l_ifc_handle ifc_name ) Description Verifies the state of the transmission FIFO buffer in preparation for the transmission of a frame of raw diagnostic data Return value No available space in the FIFO buffer: LD_QUEUE_FULL FIFO buffer empty: LD_QUEUE_EMPTY An error in transfer has occurred: LD_TRANSFER_ERROR Argument ifc_name Name of the interface Example l_u8 rtn; rtn = ld_raw_tx_status (0); Note The name of the interface can only be set to 0. In other words, it should not be set to any value other than 0.

Verification of the Reception of a Frame of Raw Diagnostic Data l_u8 ld_raw_rx_status( l_ifc_handle ifc_name ) Description Verifies the state of the reception FIFO buffer in terms of the reception of a frame of raw diagnostic data Return value The FIFO buffer holds data: LD_QUEUE_FULL An error in transfer has occurred: LD_TRANSFER_ERROR Argument ifc_name Name of the interface Example l_u8 rtn; rtn = ld_raw_rx_status (0); Note The name of the interface can only be set to 0. In other words, it should not be set to any value other than 0. Transmission of a Frame of Processed Diagnostic Data void ld_send_message( l_ifc_handle ifc_name, l_u16 length, l_u8 NAD, const l_u8* const data ) Description Reserves the transmission of a frame of processed diagnostic data Return value None Argument ifc_name Name of the interface length Amount of data for transmission NAD NAD value of the destination node for the transmission Data Buffer for the data to be transmitted Example l_u8 data[5] = { 0x12, 0x34, 0x56, 0x78, 0x9A }; ld_send_message (0, 5, 0x23, data); Note The name of the interface can only be set to 0. In other words, it should not be set to any value other than 0. Since there is no return value, error checking is not automatically executed. However, checking should be executed on the side that calls this function. If this function is called again before the transmission of the current frame is complete, operation is not guaranteed. Reception of a Frame of Processed Diagnostic Data void ld_receive_message( l_ifc_handle ifc_name, l_u16* length, l_u8* NAD, l_u8* const data) Description Reserves reception of a frame of processed diagnostic data Return value None Argument ifc_name Name of the interface length Length of the buffer to hold the received data NAD NAD value of the source node for the transmission data Buffer for storing received data Example l_u8 data[100], nad; l_u16 length = 100; ld_receive_message (0, &length, &nad, data); Note The name of the interface can only be set to 0. In other words, it should not be set to any value other than 0. Set the length of the buffer to hold the received data after having saved the permissible amount of received data at the time of reservation. Since there is no return value, error checking is not automatically executed. However, checking should be executed on the side that calls this function. If this function is called again before reception of the current frame is complete, operation is not guaranteed.

R8C/Tiny Series R8C/11 Group LIN (Local Interconnect Network): Slave Volume 2.4 How to Use the API Functions of the LIN Library

Examples of the usage of the API functions of the LIN2.0 library are given below.

2.4.1

Initialization of LIN System

The LIN system must be initialized before the API functions of the LIN2.0 library are used. In the example below, the LIN system is initialized when the microcomputer is reset. Note that the points where the API functions for LIN are called are hightlighted. extern unsigned char lin_SomeCotrol_init( void ); void PowerON_Reset(void) { HardwareSetup(); // Remove the comment mark to use Hardware Setup. /* ......Something to do */ if( l_sys_init() ) { /* LIN system initialization failed */ sleep(); } else { if( lin_SomeCotrol_init() ) { /* Some Sensor initialization failed */ sleep(); } } /* ......Something to do */ main(); return; }

2.4.2 Applications
Sample codes regarding the API functions of LIN2.0 library, which are called from applications other than those for initialization and scheduling, are described in this section. The usage of data acquired by calling the API functions depends on the application, and so is not specified in this example. Contents (frames) transferred on the LIN bus are data on the states of the various nodes and data acquired by peripheral devices. Therefore, how data should be transferred and processed will depend on the configuration of the particular LIN system.
